Who knows this ISP in Lebanon?!

Hello!

I am from Europe, and soon I am going to visit Lebanon. During my visit, I am supposed to meet some people, and one of them claims that he is working at Best formula SRL, your ISP.
As far as I could make some research, besides their website, they are not mentioned anywhere. Am I missing something, or they really don't exist? Can anybody help me to solve this mistery?

Site is www.bestformula.net

Thank you very much for any help.

Best regards,
Hrc

P. S.

Also, it would be very helpfull if you can say if you don't know about them.

Re: Who knows this ISP in Lebanon?!

ditto

Since they claim that they offer dial-up, have a link to NYC, then for sure they have to be a registered ISP.
All registered ISPs are listed at the Lebanese MPT website along with their dial-up numbers:

http://www.mpt.gov.lb/isplist.htm

Since there is no info about them at this page I highly doubt that they offer dial-up at all. Maybe they resell through some ISP (virtual ports).

Btw, I can't see any big deal in running IP over frame-relay. Useful only for some situations (like running it over STM) when you want
to detect very fast that the link is down. So, why do they brag about this implementation is a kind of curiosity for me.

Hm, they seem pretty fishy since their whois information are fake.
anyway, they're hosted by "dotleb".

I was able to get some additional information, I got two names that might be associated with the above domain:

Houssam chehabeddine and Mohammad Ghaoui

additional information will only be disclosed via private message :)
